Tipperary News Part 6
Clonmel Advertiser. 20-4-1822 We regret having to mention a cruel and barbarous murder, attended with circumstances of great audacity, that has taken place on the borders of Tipperary and Kilkenny. A farmer of the name of Morris, at Killemry, near Nine-Mile-House, having become obnoxious to the public disturbers, received a threatening notice some short time back, he having lately come to reside there. On Wednesday night last a cow of his was driven into the bog, where she perished; on Thursday morning he sent two servants, a male and female, to the bog, the male servant to skin the cow and the female to assist him; but while the woman went for a pail of water, three ruffians came, and each of them discharged their arms at him, and lodged several balls and slugs in his body, and then went off. This occurred about midday. No one dared to interfere, either for the prevention of this crime, or to follow in pursuit of the murderers. The sufferer was quite a youth, and had committed no offence, even against the banditti, but that of doing his master’s business. Clonmel Advertiser 24-8-1835 Last Saturday, being the fair day at Carrick-on-Suir, and also a holiday in the Roman Catholic Church, an immense assemblage of the peasantry poured into the town at an early hour from all directions of the surrounding country. The show of cattle was was by no means inferior-but the only disposable commodity , for which a brisk demand appeared evidently conspicuous, was for Feehans brown stout.

The War of Independence in County Kilkenny: Conflict, Politics and People
The War of Independence in County Kilkenny: Conflict, Politics and People Eoin Swithin Walsh B.A. University College Dublin College of Arts and Celtic Studies This dissertation is submitted in part fulfilment of the Master of Arts in History July 2015 Head of School: Dr Tadhg Ó hAnnracháin Supervisor of Research: Professor Diarmaid Ferriter P a g e | 2 Abstract The array of publications relating to the Irish War of Independence (1919-1921) has, generally speaking, neglected the contributions of less active counties. As a consequence, the histories of these counties regarding this important period have sometimes been forgotten. With the recent introduction of new source material, it is now an opportune time to explore the contributions of the less active counties, to present a more layered view of this important period of Irish history. County Kilkenny is one such example of these overlooked counties, a circumstance this dissertation seeks to rectify. To gain a sense of the contemporary perspective, the first two decades of the twentieth century in Kilkenny will be investigated. Significant events that occurred in the county during the period, including the Royal Visit of 1904 and the 1917 Kilkenny City By-Election, will be examined. Kilkenny’s IRA Military campaign during the War of Independence will be inspected in detail, highlighting the major confrontations with Crown Forces, while also appraising the corresponding successes and failures throughout the county. The Kilkenny Republican efforts to instigate a ‘counter-state’ to subvert British Government authority will be analysed. In the political sphere, this will focus on the role of Local Government, while the administration of the Republican Courts and the Republican Police Force will also be examined.

CHAPTER I. Would that ''the fate of Father Sheehy'' were only a legend—apocry- phal, dim, and uncertain—but alas ! it stands recorded on the page of history, and •is inscribed in characters of blood on the hearts of the Catholic people of Ireland. It is one of the darkest and most re- volting pages in the annals of any nation, and its memory hangs—a fearful shadow —over the hills and vales of Tipperary. The terrible struggle for and against Protestant ascendancy has long since ended, and the national religion—the religion which Nicholas Sheehy loved and practised, and for which he died is again free to carry out its beneficent designs amongst the children of the 2 THE PATE OF soil ; the lawless doings of tlie poor, misguided Whiteboys, and tbe still more outrageous violence and persecu- tion of their enemies—their ferocious and unrelenting oppressors, have long been transferred from the stage of life to the historic page ; but the doom of Father Sheehy—his noble resistance of oppression — his generous defence of the rights of his poor, harassed, starving people—his genuine, unosten- tatious piety, and, more than all, his unmerited sufferings and ignominious death, are still remembered with in- tense affection by the descendants of those amongst whom he laboured, and for whom he died.

The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers
THE LIST of CHURCH OF IRELAND PARISH REGISTERS A Colour-coded Resource Accounting For What Survives; Where It Is; & With Additional Information of Copies, Transcripts and Online Indexes SEPTEMBER 2021 The List of Parish Registers The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers was originally compiled in-house for the Public Record Office of Ireland (PROI), now the National Archives of Ireland (NAI), by Miss Margaret Griffith (1911-2001) Deputy Keeper of the PROI during the 1950s. Griffith’s original list (which was titled the Table of Parochial Records and Copies) was based on inventories returned by the parochial officers about the year 1875/6, and thereafter corrected in the light of subsequent events - most particularly the tragic destruction of the PROI in 1922 when over 500 collections were destroyed. A table showing the position before 1922 had been published in July 1891 as an appendix to the 23rd Report of the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records Office of Ireland. In the light of the 1922 fire, the list changed dramatically – the large numbers of collections underlined indicated that they had been destroyed by fire in 1922. The List has been updated regularly since 1984, when PROI agreed that the RCB Library should be the place of deposit for Church of Ireland registers. Under the tenure of Dr Raymond Refaussé, the Church’s first professional archivist, the work of gathering in registers and other local records from local custody was carried out in earnest and today the RCB Library’s parish collections number 1,114. The Library is also responsible for the care of registers that remain in local custody, although until they are transferred it is difficult to ascertain exactly what dates are covered.

On the Structure of Wealth-Holding in Pre-Famine Ireland1 Neil Cummins and Cormac Ó Gráda
Economic History Working Papers No: 317 On the Structure of Wealth-Holding in Pre-Famine Ireland Neil Cummins, LSE and Cormac Ó Gráda, University College Dublin December 2020 Economic History Department, London School of Economics and Political Science, Houghton Street, London, WC2A 2AE, London, UK. T: +44 (0) 20 7955 7084. On the structure of wealth-holding in pre-Famine Ireland1 Neil Cummins and Cormac Ó Gráda Keywords: inequality, wealth, Ireland JEL: N13, D31 Abstract Very little is known about wealth-holding and its distribution in Ireland in the past. Here we employ death duty register data to analyse and identify a sample of the top wealth holders in Ireland between the early 1820s and late 1830s. We examine the sources of their wealth and its regional spread, and compare them with their British counterparts. We also discuss the share of Catholics and Quakers among top wealth-holders. Introduction It seems safe to say that pre-Famine Ireland was a very unequal society, even by contemporary western European standards. Although in recent decades researchers have drawn attention to a previously ‘hidden Ireland’ of strong farmers and of a Catholic merchant class (e.g. Wall 1958; Whelan 1988; Cullen 2012), the chasm between the relatively small number of landowners who owned virtually all the land and the three million of so rural dwellers who relied almost solely on the potato for subsistence resonates more of serfdom than of industrialising Britain. Still, little is known about the wealth of the elite, and even contemporary Irish critics of wealth inequality in pre-Famine Ireland, such as William Thompson and Feargus O’Connor, had little insight into how great that inequality was (D’Arcy 1994; Large 1966).

Place Names of the Decies
THE PLACE-NAMES OF DECIES By VERY REV. P. CANON POWER D. LITT. M.R.1.A. SECOND EDITION CORK UNIVERSITY PRESS OXFORD: B. H. BLACKWELL. LTD. 1952 Published by The Cork University Press, University College, Cork. Printed in Ireland by Eagle Printing Co., Ltd., South Mall, Cork, Printers to the Cork University Press. FOREWORD Patrick Power was born at Callaghane, three miles from Waterford, on 8th March, 1862. He was educated at Ballygunner National School, the Catholic University School, Waterford, and St. John's College, Waterford. He was ordained in 1883 and for three years he worked on temporary mission in Liverpool. Being threatened with tuberculosis, he went to Australia, where he spent seven years in the diocese of Wilcania-Forbes, being Rector successively of Cobar, Bourke and Wilcania, New South Wales. He came into contact with the aborigines; and it as probably in Australia that his interest in archaeology was first developed. On his return to Waterford he was attached to the Cathedral for three years; he then successively became Diocesan Inspector of Schools, Chaplain to the De la Salle Training College, and Curate at Portlaw. About 1900 he published a Manual of Religious Instruction, which ran to thirty editions and was used extensively in this country during the first two decades of the century; it appears to be still in use in Australia. His interest in place-names, ecclesiastical antiquities and archaeology soon became more than a paragon or hobby. He made extensive explorations throughout Waterford. Even in his student days he published in local papers articles on Waterford history.

McGrath, was born on January 3rd 1898 at Cahergal, Coolagarranroe, Clogheen, Co. Tipperary. (Later this was 'D' Company area, 6th Battalion, 3rd Tipperary Brigade). I joined the National Volunteers in 1914, and, with eighteen other members, left them and joined the Irish Volunteers when the split came. Our unit was attached to the Mitchelstown Company, and training instructors attended at Skeheenarinky two evenings weekly for drilling and parades. With the others, I joined the Irish Volunteers, and drill instructor M. Walsh of Mitchelstown attended to give drill instructions to our unit twice weekly. Our company was disbanded in 1916, and a few raids by the R.I.C. took place locally after the Rising of 1916, but evidently none of the members was considered important enough to arrest.
